About the 인지 및 에너지 스택
The Cognitive & Energy Stack pairs the two most-studied Russian-developed nootropic research peptides (Semax and Selank) with NAD+ — the foundational cellular cofactor for mitochondrial energy production and sirtuin enzyme activity. The combination is designed for research applications investigating cognitive performance, attention, anxiolytic pathways, and cellular-energy biology in a single protocol.
Semax and Selank are unusual in research literature because both were developed in the same Russian peptide-research lineage and share the same intranasal delivery route, yet target completely different receptor systems — Semax (a fragment of ACTH 4-10) acts on the monoaminergic side, Selank (a fragment of tuftsin) on the GABAergic side. Combining them in research is common precisely because they target non-overlapping neurochemistry.
NAD+ provides the cellular-energy half of the focus-and-energy axis. Tissue NAD+ levels decline with age, and restoring NAD+ pools is a major focus of contemporary aging and cellular-energetics research. All compounds in the kit are HPLC-verified, ship from Australian stock, and are supplied for laboratory research use only.
Why these compounds together
Semax is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from ACTH (4-10), studied in cognitive performance, attention, neuroprotection, and stroke-recovery research models. It is delivered intranasally and crosses the blood-brain barrier through the olfactory pathway. Russian and Eastern European research has accumulated decades of literature on Semax in cognitive-performance and neurological-protection models.
Selank is a synthetic heptapeptide derived from tuftsin, also delivered intranasally, also from the Russian peptide-research lineage. Where Semax research focuses on monoaminergic and BDNF pathways, Selank research focuses on GABAergic and anxiolytic mechanisms. The two compounds are routinely paired in cognitive research because they cover complementary aspects of the cognitive-state question — one nootropic, one anxiolytic — without targeting the same receptors.
NAD+ is the cellular redox cofactor that drives electron transport, supports mitochondrial energy production, and serves as substrate for sirtuin and PARP enzyme families. The cognitive side of research often pairs neuropeptide modulation with cellular-energy support, because attention and throughput are downstream of mitochondrial function in neurons.
Cycle structure
The 6-week cycle structure aligns with common nootropic-research literature, which typically uses shorter windows than tissue-repair or hormone-axis research. Cognitive-performance effects in Semax / Selank research models are often measurable within 2-4 weeks, with the 6-week window providing time for stabilisation and post-intervention measurement.
Reconstituted intranasal peptides should be stored at 2-8°C and used within 30 days. Nasal spray bottles for delivery are commercially available; the kit supplies the lyophilised compounds and bacteriostatic water can be ordered separately as a research supply.
Why these compounds together
Semax와 Selank는 서로 다른 신경전달 체계(모노아민계와 GABA계)로 보완하고, NAD+는 세포 산화환원 생물학과 미토콘드리아 출력을 지원합니다. 집중-에너지 축의 에너지 측입니다.

인지 및 에너지 스택 — frequently asked questions
What peptides are used in nootropic research?
The two most-studied nootropic research peptides are Semax (a fragment of ACTH 4-10, studied for cognitive performance and neuroprotection) and Selank (a fragment of tuftsin, studied for anxiolytic and cognitive effects). Both originated in Russian peptide research and use intranasal delivery. NAD+ is widely paired with these in research designs to support cellular-energy biology.
What is the difference between Semax and Selank?
Both are synthetic heptapeptides from the Russian peptide-research lineage, both delivered intranasally — but they target different receptor systems. Semax research focuses on monoaminergic and BDNF pathways (cognitive performance, attention). Selank research focuses on GABAergic and anxiolytic mechanisms. The two are routinely combined in research because they cover complementary aspects of the cognitive-state question.
Is the Cognitive Stack legal in Australia?
Semax and Selank are restricted for compounded human therapeutic supply in Australia and remain available for research and laboratory use when supplied without therapeutic representation. NAD+ is available for research and supplementary use. Quantum Labs supplies the stack for research use only. Quantum Labs supplies this stack for laboratory and pre-clinical research use only. It is not represented for human therapeutic use, and questions about clinical dosing or expected personal outcomes should be directed to a qualified medical practitioner.
What does the Cognitive & Energy Stack kit contain?
2× Semax vials, 2× Selank vials, 1× NAD+ vial — sized for the 6-week research cycle. All compounds lyophilised, sealed, HPLC-verified ≥99% purity, batch-traceable. Ships from Australian stock as a single kit.
How are nootropic peptides delivered in research?
Semax and Selank are most commonly delivered intranasally — the peptides are well-absorbed across the nasal mucosa and reach the central nervous system through olfactory-pathway transport. Subcutaneous delivery is used in some research designs but intranasal is the primary route in published literature.
Is PCT needed for the Cognitive Stack?
Post-cycle therapy is generally associated with research protocols affecting the HPG axis. The Cognitive & Energy Stack targets central nervous system and cellular-energy pathways — none of the compounds suppress the HPG axis — so structured PCT is not part of the protocol design.
